Kicking Biden while he's down

 President Biden is coming in for a pile of criticism for the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.  People clinging to the planes, 600 people crowded into one plane, the Taliban already beheading people.  I will say it would have been hard to predict how fast the Afghan army would collapse, but, yeah, we should have done better.

On the other hand, there is no excuse for the Biden Administration to support the construction of Line 3, a pipeline bringing tar sands through Ojibwe reservation land.  This benefits Enbridge, a giant petrochemical company and one of the partners in the proposed PennEast pipeline that would go through our farm.  When the earth is getting warmer by the month, why would the Biden Administration go along with the Line 3 pipeline.  This is a preventable disaster.
